It's a bit past the actual mid-year, but nonetheless, I present my top 20 albums of the mid-year 2020! Music is my utmost passion, so I am so excited to share with you my thoughts on what has been a tremendous year for music so far.

DISCLAIMER: This is my top 20, as of July 16th only! So please understand amazing albums like Blu and Exile's Miles aren't on the list for a reason... 

Top 20 (in descending order):

1. King Krule - Man Alive!

2. Run the Jewels - RTJ4

3. Armand Hammer - Shrines 

4. R.A.P. Ferreira - Purple Moonlight Pages

5. The Weeknd - After Hours

6. Ka - Descendents of Cain

7. Freddie Gibbs & The Alchemist - Alfredo

8. Jay Electronica - A Written Testimony

DISCLAIMER 2: I went Gary Vee style and didn’t let anything get in the way of starting this, so I recorded the first 4 episodes using my phone and a Beats mic. Therefore, the sound quality is not great, however, bare with me because my new microphone finally came in! So from Episode 5 and onward the sound is way better!
